Man on a String

Nothing but a cold floor, under my feet

Outside, the wind turns to sleet

Nothing but a ghost knocking on my door

All because you don't send me love, anymore

Send me no more love

It would only stand to make me sick

Send me love no more

Well, I'd only get back in what I got out

Way too quick

One old man who would like to talk a good game

Words sweet as syrup pouring outta him like rain

One fateless night fooling around down town

When that girl came in, you could hear the sap hit the ground

And I know a girl with a man on a string

She loves to see how much he could take

With a come on and a little heartache

She swore she didn't need anymore

Then all she could take

Nothing but a cold floor under my feet

Outside, the wind blows bitterly

Nothing but a ghost knocking on my door

All because you don't send me love, anymore

Yeah, I know a man with a girl on a string

Likes to see how much she can take

With a come on and a little heartbreak

But she swore she didn't need any more

Than all she could take
